- Oppose No wow for me --Michielverbeek (talk) 19:13, 25 February 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose Just another cityscape seen from a drone, TBH. Daniel Case (talk) 03:34, 26 February 2023 (UTC)
- I guess we have less ceilings, birds and stacked flowers - Benh (talk) 09:09, 26 February 2023 (UTC)
- Support I don't get where are the "no wow" comments coming from. I quite like this drone shot and it's cool to see the Arsenal Stadium from this perspective. --SHB2000 (talk) 09:58, 26 February 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose per Daniel Case. -- Karelj —Preceding undated comment was added at 10:32, 26 February 2023 (UTC) (UTC)
- Weak oppose I get Benh's frustration above. I've nominated plenty of images that weren't the "standard subjects", and have often been disappointed. Usually they're some sort of subject where the composition can't help but be imperfect, like a street scene with lots of people. Drone shots of developments may be similar in the way a city's lines aren't conducive to the kind of neat geometry that appeals to the largest number of people. But to be fair, we are getting a lot of aerial nominations these days, too (four currently nominated), and they tend to do pretty well. The big issue here for me (perhaps biased from living in cities most of my life) is that an apartment complex, regardless of the history of the site, is one of the subjects with the least starting "wow factor". It needs a special composition or some other reason to be set apart. While this is a good and useful image (maybe a VI), I'm not sure what this angle is better than any other on the light side of the structure. — Rhododendrites talk | 15:27, 28 February 2023 (UTC)
